Description:
This is just an idea of improvment : On the current version, it's not possible (unless I've missed the setting) to set a maximum number of files listed in the "recent files" panel.
For slightly paranoïac personns such as me, it's annoying to have to manualy click on "Delete the recent documents" often to avoid anybody who would access my pc to see the last files I've worked on since the last time I pressed "Delete the recent documents".
So I'd like an option which allow me to set a maximum number of files listed in the "Recent files" (or Recent documents ?) panel and, ideally, this number could be set to 0 for people who don't want any history kept.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Libreoffice
2.Click on "Recent documents"


Actual Results:
On the right panel you see a lot of documents listed

Expected Results:
If the new option is, for exemple, set to 1, you should see only 1 (the last) document used


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

you can change the "PickListSize" via Expert Configuration:

- Menu Tools/Options.../LibreOffice/Advanced
  -> [Open Expert Configuration]
- search for "History"
- adjust value for "PickListSize", e.g. 0
